A chameleon in all seasons

Depending on when you test/ wear Shuhrah, your experience of this fragrance may vary.
Testing in warm weather: On my skin, Shuhrah was an aromatic white floral with an imprint of Oud, a touch of ambergris and moderately earthy but present, patchouli. There was a sweet, sugary introduction to the citrus opening and lily of the valley dominated mid, but once oud and patchouli made their introductions, that all faded away. Although Shuhrah was not a light fragrance, she could not be accused of being heavy or too intense. On clothing, citrus, sage, muguet and oud notes were more pronounced.
Testing in cool weather: On skin and clothing, the sweet citrus opening of Shuhrah stretched into the white floral and sage mid. On paper, it becomes obvious that the oud in Shuhrah is the banyard time, however, on skin the oud note was all but a wispy shadow. In cool weather, Shuhrah became a sweet and sour, white floral, if that explains anything.
I've tested and bought quite a lot of Rasasis, and this is the most interesting, independent fragrance I've smelt from them. Shuhrah reminds me of nothing, she's a masterpiece, but not a safe blind buy.

That’s My Jam

With Shuhrah pour Femme, I was sitting on the fence for too long now. Finally, I bought this perfume so much praised on the web. It is astounding that the packaging seems almost covered in silk. Having recently received Shuhrah pour Homme, I already knew what awaited me from a presentation point of view. The transparent plastic cap may clash with the solid glass bottle, but that’s not what interests me. It didn’t take long before it dumbfounded me after spraying a sample onto the back of my hand. A robust and dense brume full of mystery enveloped me like a cloak. It’s a modern chypre, and there’s no escaping it. And right in the first few notes, I recognised something very close to famous perfumes such as Coco Mademoiselle Eau de Parfum and L'Interdit (2018) Eau de Parfum. Not that Shuhrah is a clone. Instead, they all have that distinctive filthy touch typical of patchouli, which leaves more than one imprint on the entire evolution of the perfume.

Shuhrah pour Femme has only the name Shuhrah and the bottle shape in common with its male counterpart. If the masculine light blue liquid offers us an atmosphere full of smoky and incense notes, the feminine straw yellow fluid contains citric, flowery and earthy notes. The two perfumes are complementary yet different from one another. Both Shuhrah perfumes are great and ridiculously cheap for the quality of both presentation and essences. About this fragrance, lemon, lily of the valley, and patchouli are the dominant notes. Surrounding these citrus, floral and earthy accords are other green, powdery, salty and woody undertones that complement the fabulous potion.

Ouch, the sprayer works well with a considerable amount of juice expanding in one go. Opening Shuhrah offers citrus and green notes from lemon and sage on a floral background. The smokiness of the oud is evident but subdued, smoky but not animalic or skanky, and combined with the lemon zest and velvety leaves of sage; it offers a unique opening. The initial phase is citrusy with herbaceous and smoky undertones; a sheer squeeze of fresh lemons infused with a subtle hint of oud. It might feel fresh but only for a while.

Shuhrah is non-linear, and as the rushing opening subsides, I perceive the first shift towards a dense white floral accord. From the rich bouquet, I mostly get the poisonous, narcotic lily of the valley, underpinned by indolic jasmine and a chypre accord nuance. The powdery edge is dry, unlike baby powder or lipstick, just powder that muffles the higher notes.

In the dry-down, another gradual change follows. This time it brings mossiness and earthiness wrapped up in a salty undertone. The oud tone is still there, not dominant, but perceptible and harmonious. At no time did I hear a loud, medicinal, or massive oud. On my skin, I see a lot of clean musks juxtaposed with the slightly medicinal, almost balsamic and mentholated patchouli. At the same time, the ambergris stays in the background along with the oud, adding harmony without taking possession.

Again, this scent intended for a female audience can be worn by a man passionate about white flowers without being labelled too flowery or sweetish. The floral part is dark, dense and deep, almost abysmal, sensual, and masculine from specific points of view. The female version is a little less potent than the male one. I don't get stellar performance, perhaps recent batches have been reformulated. Though, both projection and longevity are good but slightly weaker than Shuhrah pour Homme. However, I see an outstanding performance. As for the season, the key chords remind me of autumn and maybe spring, mostly daytime and evening. If I stay moderate with the splashes, the office can be a suitable occasion to wear it, along with leisure time spent shopping or out and about. I would say delighted after my thousand-second thoughts. Rasasi confirms itself as an ideal house for Middle Eastern perfumes.

I'm basing my opinion and review on a bottle I've owned since December 2022 (PD 06-2022).
